i got the "The name you entered is already in use! Please select a new name!" in Free for All when making countries at start of set, so for someone to have gotten around that purposely, i do see that as exploiting a bug, cheating, and requiring deletion

from the deletions policy blog post:

"If you find a bug, please report it right away."

i just noticed this bug, so i'm reporting it, i doubt the guy exploiting it, reported it, seeing as he continued to exploit it while making 10 countries

trying putting a space before or after it...

it used to be in the game, maybe its deliberate

i remember if you made a long name the country numbers counted as letters so you had 25 - digits

and at one time you could have blank so just type space or something

there used to be thousands of unnamed countries

anyway does it really matter since you can see the numbers?

id try thinks like alt 255 and so on, spaces

i think he is just sad someone is using his name and not being creative!

It has nothing to do with creativity and everything to do with Royalties.

You cann't use the name Llaar withoot paying royalties.

*Pays oot .20c*

Posting here to confirm that I've seen the post. I'll have an answer for you shortly..

ok. It has been dealt with.
It's not a bug exploit.
Someone was just using the Spacebar.

However given the situation, it has been dealt with so they don't all come up the same.

odd, i tried the spacebar on a different server to see what he might have done, and it didn't work for me

try in express

"blomcrat "
with a space after

it does not work

it was a space(s) between llaar and cheats
and a space before.

When I went to rename that's what came up.
I'll ask the admins about it since this might cause other issues
down the road.

i am in favor of the new country names though

*grins*

just how the old mods used to fix offensive names in 2025 as well

ah, beforehand... didn't think of that

gotta use ltrim and rtrim to check for the same name i suppose ;) (or whatever coding y'all are using, not sure the php string functions)

:)
